Title: Method and system for computerized tracking, analyzing and reporting of information specific to residential and commercial tenancy histories
Inventor: DOBROWOLSKI JOHN M
IPC: G06Q50/16
Filed: 2011-10-31
Abstract: A method and system for collecting, tracking, analyzing and reporting tenancy histories is provided along with a rent score and application adjudication process for assessing new tenancies. A tenancy history is complied for each tenancy life cycle (approval, move-in, move--out) for all manner of tenancies residential and commercial. A rent scoring model employs a tenancy scorecard of all events experienced between a landlord and tenant. On demand, a tenant's history data is analyzed to present a snap shot of the present status of a tenant considering all historical events. A landlord's report may include particulars of monthly tenancy payments, legal matters, sheriff enforcement, collection and real-time rent scoring. Optionally the rent score may be combined with certain credit information to create a comprehensive standing. The model may consider other factors relating to tenancy history such as, acceptance rating, evictions, collections, employment, income and expenses, and other rental property management information.

Abstract: A system and method for navigating pages of content on a target device is disclosed. The target device has a display area that is typi-cally smaller than a page of content. Rather than having the user use scroll bars or finger gestures to view the entire page, a predetermined sequence of frames are displayed to the user. A frame is a preselected portion of a page. The user simply indicates when he has completed reading or view-ing the current frame, and the next frame is then presented in the display area. This predetermined sequence is generated by the content provider or author, who uploads both the content and the frame sequence to a server, where it can be accessed by potential users.

Title: Alkali neutralizing acquisition and distribution structures for use in personal care articles
Inventor: CONFALONE PHILIP
IPC: D04H1/58
Filed: 2012-02-08
Abstract: Disclosed herein are nonwoven fibrous structures for use as body fluid acquisition/distribution elements in personal care products. Such structures comprise natural and/or synthetic fibers wherein the fibers have been consolidated by application thereto, and by cross-linking of, a certain type of cross-linkable, vinyl acetate-ethylene (VAE) emulsion copolymer latex binder. The VAE latex binder is one which also comprises an added organic acidulant such as citric acid. Consolidation of the structures with VAE-based binders to which the organic acidulant has been added imparts to the resulting structures the ability to lower the pH of body fluids such as urine passing through the structures. This effect, in turn, provides odor control and skin care benefits to the absorbent articles, e.g., diapers and adult incontinence products, using such structures as acquisition/distribution elements.
Patent CA-2771951-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZHANG YAZHOU
IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 2005-05-18
Abstract: The mechanism by which the high bone mass (HBM) mutation (G171 V) of the Wnt coreceptor LRP5 regulates the canonical Wnt signaling was investigated. The mutation was previously shown to reduce Dkk protein-1-mediated antagonism, suggesting that the first YWTD repeat domain where G171 is located may be responsible for Dkk protein- mediated antagonism. However, we found that the third YWTD repeat, but not the first repeat domain, is required for DKK1-mediated antagonism. Instead, we found that the G171V mutation disrupted the interaction of LRP5 with Mesd, a chaperon protein for LRP5/6 molecules on the cell surface. Although the reduction in the level of cell surface LRP5 molecules led to a reduction in Wnt signaling in a praracrine paradigm, the mutation did not appear to affect the activity of coexpressed Wnt in an autocrine paradigm. Together with the observation that osteoblast cells produce autorcine canonical Wnt, Wnt7b, and that osteocytes produce paracrine Dkk1, we believe that the G171V mutation may cause an incrase in Wnt activity in osteoblasts by reducing the number of targets for paracrine Dkk1 to antagonize without affecting the activity of autocrine Wnt.

Abstract: A tablet splitting apparatus capable of reducing fluctuations in weight of split tablet pieces even with simple advanceable - retractable blades is provided. A holding mechanism 30 holds a tablet 10 to be split at a cutting position.  In reducing the gap between a pair of opposed blades 41 and 42, which are advanced and retracted with respect to the cutting position, to cut the tablet 10, the holding mechanism 30 continuously holds the tablet 10 until the tablet 10 is caught between the pair of opposed blades 41 and 42 of a cutting mechanism 40. After the tablet 10 is caught between the pair of opposed blades 41 and 42, the holding mechanism 30 releases the tablet and only the pair of opposed blades 41 and 42 hold the tablet 10. The opposed blades 41 and 42 are caused to cut into the tablet 10 after the holding mechanism 30 releases the tablet 10, preventing a crack 11 caused in the tablet 10 ahead of the opposed blades 41 and 42 from being curved or increased.
